...most human beings can be persuaded, especially with cash. The study found that among hospitals that had implemented digital records - which tended to be teaching hospitals and larger hospitals in urban areas - 82% had received additional reimbursement for EHR use, and 75% got financial incentives for adopting the system.

The hazards were documented in earlier studies of animals: for example, rat studies have repeatedly shown that animals exposed to anesthesia drugs in the first seven days of life - when nerve cells are forming and connecting to the larger neural network - develop problems performing maze exercises, which require memory and reasoning skills.

Some experts believed babies did not have...

Tata doesn't see it that way, calling complaints about the potential environmental impact of widespread Nano adoption "somewhat ironic." "It's almost like a car is O.K. for some people, but don't spread it to the larger base of the population," he says. "Why are we denying the masses comforts that we enjoy today?" There are millions of other families still in India, still piled onto motorcycles, who have asked themselves that question.
